If you haven't seen Split Circles Technique cards, then you're in for a treat!
This was one of the projects that my DOstamping@Home ClubMembers received in their project kits this month.
With social distancing guidelines this year, I switched all of my clubs to my TO GO option. We have a private facebook group for members-only, where I share the projects and demonstrate the cards via Facebook Live. For those that aren't on Facebook, the videos are shared privately on YouTube as well.

I'm excited about sharing today's card, as it was a card both my grandson, Max and I made together. He picked out the bundle, Nothing's Better Than, and then we started playing!
As he turned 13 this spring (yes, he's now a teenager - wow!) - I was actually surprised (but delighted) he still wanted to craft with me. And, since he is only 13, we called it a pink lemonade card.
He also wanted to make sure I tell you all that he helped design the card. Even at 13 - he melts my heart (in between the moody teen times - ha)! Here's what we came up with...
DOstamping It's Your Day Pink Lemonade card:
Stamps/Bundles: Nothing's Better Than Bundle, Happiest of Birthdays
Paper:
Flirty Flamingo (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base)
Whisper White (3 x 4-1/4", scrap for cocktail die)
Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper (both strips 3/4" x 5-1/4")
Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Coastal Cabana
Other: Love You More Than Dies, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Stampin' Seal & Stampin' Dimensionals
I really liked the way the Nothing's Better Than stamp set went with the greeting from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set. To see how it all came together, be sure to check out my How'd She DO That? video. It showcases THREE birthday cards, including this one:

I'm excited to join this talented group of stampers to share alternate ideas for Paper Pumpkin Kits. Today we're sharing the June 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit - Box of Sunshine
June Paper Pumpkin - Box of Sunshine
Kit contains supplies for 8 cards and envelopes (2 cards of 4 designs)
This month's kit is fun & bright. The theme of Sharing Sunshine is just what we need right now. At first I thought this kit would be just a little too bright for me. But when I started playing with it, I found I really liked it. I had so much fun creating alternative cards that it was hard to stop.
Here's FOUR of my alternative ideas using the Box of SunshinePaper Pumpkin kit...
How'd She DO That? Brighten Your Day card:
This card's elements are all from the kit.
How'd She DO That? Sending Sunshine card:
Whisper White Thick 4-1/4" x 11" card base.
Front layer is from the back of one of the cards from the kit, cut down to 4" x 5-1/4
Everything else is from the kit.
How'd She DO That? Pineapple Smile card:
Fold card base from kit on score line, then cut in half at 2-3/4" (this will make two cards)
Decorate with a 1" x 1-1/4" strip, cut from the gold foil lined card (from kit).
Finish decorating with elements from the kit.
Wrap "half card" around card base of 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" Whisper White Thick (adhere on backside).
How'd She DO That? Lemon Smile card:
Cut large black polka dot sticker in half a 1-1/4" Attach to 4" x 5-1/4" Whisper White panel - trim of excess.
Decorate with elements from the kit.
Adhere to folded 4"-1/4" x 11" Daffodil Delight card base.

I'm beyond excited that I can finally share my Million Sales Achiever stamp set with you! It's called "Music from the Heart". Which is perfect, as every time I look at, it makes my heart sing!
You might be wondering, "why music"? That's a good question.
Growing up, music was a huge part of my life. I played several instruments: oboe, guitar, saxophone, but particularly piano (classically trained). I was in any band I could be in...concert band, jazz band, orchestra, musical theater practice piano and of course...marching band. Officially - I'm a band geek! I'm sure I have some fellow band geeks out there, right? In addition, I sang in choirs and co-directed our church's children's choir for a couple of years.
My girls were also in band and choir growing up (of course). My daughter Becky is now a musician, singer/songwriter. And now a 3rd generation is developing a love of music...my grandsons. Max plays piano and percussion. Sam plays saxophone.
So...music was a natural choice for me!
I was thrilled to be able to share my stamp set and samples at the Stampin' Up! Atlanta OnStage this month. See below for my creations (note: I will be creating a couple of videos on how to use the stamp set, as well as some of the specific projects):
Features of the "Music from the Heart" stamp set:
Create your own greeting by mixing and matching images
Curvy keyboard can be stamped multiple times to create a border
Music notes can be stamped randomly on music staff, or stamp out a favorite tune ie: Happy Birthday
Songbirds can be stamped on music staff
Stamp the treble clef, then 2-step stamp the partial guitar image to create a "full" artsy guitar
Use the Timeless Label Punch to put this sweet sentiment front and center!
Use the keyboard image to create a custom background piece
Use the music staff image to create an interesting background piece
Combine the guitar and Stitched Stars Dies for a fun rockin' card
Note: the Stitched Stars Dies are from the Holiday Catalog and will be carrying over - yay!
Create mini records with the 1-1/2" and 1/2" Circle Punches
Stamp on "balloons" cut out with the Balloon Bouquet Punch
Change from classic colors to fun color combos for some quick cards!
Take a closer look at the Heart Epoxy Droplets. All 3 sizes will fit an image in the stamp set!
Use the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to add glimmer and color in the center of the guitars
Tip for the "grid" square: Stamp music staff horizontally, and then vertically.
The word "music" uses the Lined Alphabet stamp set and Real Red Stampin' Blends
Come January 3, 2020, you can add "Music from the Heart" (151674) to your shopping card (part of the upcoming Jan-June 2020 Mini Catalog). Band Geeks unite!!
